Independence Day fireworks are a great American tradition – so why stay home to watch the festivities? We’ve compiled a list of the Top 10 Hotels with the Highest “Boom Factor,” offering the best vantage points – from pools and rooftop bars to balconies, beaches and even bathtubs – to watch the sky sparkle this 4th of July.

Hyatt Regency Austin – One of the few hotels in the city that overlooks the water, the Hyatt Regency’s pyrotechnic-friendly perches also offer front-row seats for the legendary (freakish?) nightly ascent of one-million-plus Mexican bats from the Congress Avenue Bridge.

Mandarin Oriental New York – Some rooms in this 54-story hotel have views of the river – and fireworks – that guests can enjoy while relaxing in a marble soaking tub. Talk about celebrating independence in style!

W Washington DC– The property’s P.O.V. rooftop bar offers a premiere vantage point for viewing the fireworks over the Mall – the cornerstone of one of the most spectacular Fourth of July celebrations in the entire country.

Disneyland Hotel, Anaheim – The happiest place on earth can easily be found on a hotel room balcony inside Disneyland on July 4th, with an accompanying soundtrack on the hotel’s fireworks-music channel.

Swissotel Chicago– A premier destination in Chicago’s trendy Navy Pier district, with many rooms overlooking the water for first-rate views of the city’s top fireworks celebration.

Royal Sonesta, Boston – This family-friendly hotel offers some of the best views to be had in the entire city from rooms facing the Charles River. If those aren’t available, the walkway along the River’s edge is close by.

Tropicana Casino & Resort, Atlantic City– The rooftop Alto Vino bar has both an extensive wine list and an amazing view of the Atlantic City skyline, where guests can see the fireworks completely unobscured.
